So cute...

The Foss's enjoying some beverages in celebration of Chinese New Year. Gina, Scott, and baby Ben, where is Ian??

The Hulk?

I'm not sure where we were going with this but it works. Dustan strutting off his sweet moves! It was a fun Chinese New Years dinner at the Franklunds.

Chillin'

Maggie doesn't seem to be having as much fun as myself in this picture. I think it is time for nummies!

Entertaining...

I kept Jack entertained in that boring old high chair for quite some time. It is looking as though he has had enough of my antics. They refer to me as "crazy Sara" over at the Franklund house.

I wonder if I caught something?

I hope "Bob" the flesh eating amoeba isn't back from Korea! Hard times for my body.

My first stop during Christmas vacation!

The Hollands being wonderful as usual! I had a blast with you guys. Justin, thank you for driving us around everywhere you are great! Katie, why won't you go get my gummi lifesavers? It's not that cold is it? Love you both!

All grown up!

I love this shot of Katie. She was a great hostess during my stay with her, I can't wait to go back. Don't tell anyone I said that it is Iowa after all!

Having a great time with my Katie!

My first official time in Iowa was great! Thank you Katie and Justin! This is Katie pre rockstar status. I love you girl!

Starting off the Holidays right!

My grandma and I starting the Christmas celebration off right. She is a wonderful woman. Love you Grandma!

A new little family???

My brother Jake with his girlfriend Erin and her little boy Blake. I think my little brother is growing up...he better keep her, she is good for him!

The lawyer in the family.

My cousin Bryan being the funny guy he is. That tie is "hot" it will surely help pick up the ladies!

Gaming in the basement.

My brother Mike and cousin Alex downstairs playing Wii to avoid all the commotion!

Doing what he does best.

My Uncle Jon giving little Blake advice on life! He is actually very good at this. I thank him for all the smart things and good advice he gives me! Love you Uncle Jon!

Watch out for Aiden.

He was on a shooting rampage! Spinning in the chair saying pewww...pfewww...pffeww!

Watching Blake.

I took Blake downstairs to play with him. I got in trouble by my Aunt Debbie because I let him have a sucker. I made her be the bad guy and take it away. She is such a bully but I love her none the less.

I had to add this picture!

Do I look like I just got up, because I did! Christmas morning, there is nothing like it. I missed it last year while I was in South Korea and will never do such a thing again. Plus I love my new iHome for my iPod! Thank you so much Santa!

My dad reliving his childhood!

My mom got my dad a horse on a stick for Christmas. He used to have one when he was little. While watching Bonanza he would ride his horsey! We all got a good laugh..... :)

My long time friend through thick and thin....

Teri and I having an early birthday dinner at Tasty Pizza North in Pequot Lakes, MN. I hadn't seen her in over a year and it had been too long. Love ya girl!

Posin' for Teri!

Really, he did what to you??

Trying to control my best friend!

Playing darts and having a great time with my Angie! I love you girl!

Our Birthday night!

Our favorite bartenders at "The Ol' Pickle Factory" in Nisswa, MN. Me, Angie, Lani and Terry having a blast!

Sweet Baby Kale.

"I am trying to get my slinky box out from under that darn TV stand. I can take time to cheese for the camera."

Love ya little buddy!

I will never eat avocado again!

I'm sorry Auntie Sara...I didn't mean to projectile vomit my dinner at you! I still love this kid with all my heart! Keri and I got a good laugh. :)

Having fun with the Wooden boys!

Enjoying the time I spend with Kale and Leif. Of course Keri, Toby and I had fun playing Wii and eating good food all night long.

Turkey Day 2008.

Thank you Foss's for a great Thanksgiving. I had a great time with you all and the food was amazing. Thank you again!

Busy cook...

Gina was a busy cook during the day. She made many good dishes for dinner. I have to say this is the first year I tried sweet potatoes and they were awesome! I even tried brussel sprouts but will have to pass on those.

Good help...

Scott was the Dish Man. He cleaned up the dishes while we were preparing all the food. I think we used almost every dish and pan in the house. This was only round one of the dishes.

The big brother.

Ian is such a ham for the camera. He loves having his picture taken. We had many good laughs. This is my favorite photo of him.

The littlest of the Foss clan.

I had to work hard to get this grin outta Baby Ben. He was such a good baby while we were preparing Thanksgiving dinner. Thanks Ben.

My first time making gravy...

Thanks to my Dad, I made my first batch of Thanksgiving gravy. It was great. I am so proud of myself. Ian wanted to be part of this amazing moment!

Relaxin' after a good meal.

Ian chilling in the baby seat after being stuffed after a great meal!

Ending our day in style...

A little whipped cream from the can before bed time...I love it! Ian was eating the stuff that fell on the floor too, he loved it!

The drive home...

This was my drive home from the Foss's on Thanksgiving night 2008. What a good way to end the day and the beginning of the Holiday season!!!

An Italian Wonderland.

I took my mom out to dinner at Paravicini's. It was delicious. Spaghetti and meatballs, how can you go wrong??

Wheat Grass???

A nice worker at Keva Juice let my mom go back and have a shot with the wheat grass. One ounce shot is worth 2.5 lbs. worth of vegetables. It is a hangover cure as well as something to take if you are getting sick! Great stuff with a chaser of O.J.

Beautiful day in Colorado Springs!

My mom and I enjoying a special treat at Keva Juice. A little something my friend Wendy suggested..thanks Wendy!

Scrap Mania!

My mom and I went to Archiver's and worked on many different things. I had a great time...she had an awesome time too!

Being Dorks in the Canyon!

These are the hardest shots for me, I don't know why? I'm always looking cheesy!

Angie in William's Canyon.

As much as she is afraid of heights she sure likes to climb up the rocks. That is Cave of the Winds in the background. This was another fun day with Angie in Colorado.

Hiking in Williams Canyon.

This is one of my favorite hikes in Colorado. It is slowly uphill all the way, a great workout.

A play....

Angie, Gina, Baby Ben and I went to the theater. I will have to say I expected there to be more than one person doing all the acting. Needless to say we left during intermission.

Parvancini

Enjoying an amazing dinner at Parvancini in Old Colorado City. Our necks are a little sore.

I can do this...

Reverend Goat finding my center and getting ready to inflict pain.

Does she look scared?

Sinister Tattoo is where it all happens. It is such a tough decision, what should I get put on my body forever?

Trying new activities..

Angie and I went to stamp camp on Saturday morning and made some really cool projects.

Angie takin' a break

We took a little rest at a beautiful point along the trail. Garden of the Gods is in the far background.

Playing in Red Rock Canyon

As much rock climbing you will see out of me.

Our psychic reading...

We went to Celebrations in Old Colorado city and each had our own personal psychic reading. It was very interesting.

This is what we do in Colorado....

Angie got a tattoo while she was here. It is a symbol for "luck" in Chinese. We can thank Reverend Goat for these awesome tattoos.

The latest addition to my body....

So, I also got a new tattoo. It says "family" in Korean.
